Default White Gold 75 - Car fire M6 Preston area

Saw a very sad sight yesterday when travelling south on the M6 near Preston. White Gold 75 on northbound side with engine bay well alight and no emergency services yet in attendance. Looked a well kept car so wondered if it was a member? I worry that it would be a total loss by the time it could be dealt with. I lost my 75 a year ago so I know the feeling although my loss wasn't as traumatic as this.

Steve.

I have a nice White Gold 1.8 Conoisseur 5 speed in my garage in Glasgow that I don't use. If now carless White Gold owner wants a replacement let me know. Price would be extremely reasonable.

Wonder if it is a cooked LSM or something else.
